I do not think enough fantasy stories truly delve into the complexities of their own world. Oh, and there are kidnappings, daring escapes, and overthrowing an empire. Plus and the fact that they hate each other on sight. An arranged marriage and culture clash to be precise. My Take: Like the first line suggests, this story is all about culture clash. Here is story quite interesting that is quite ambitious in its scope, on many levels, it's Dragonfly by Julia Golding.įirst Line: The Fourth Crown Princess of the Blue Crescent Islands had sixteen rituals to observe from the moment of waking to when she broke her fast. I will not review books before 2005 (with very rare exceptions). I will try and aim for books 100,000 or larger. I will not review any book that is one of the top 25,000 selling books (based on Amazon ranks). I will focus on YA and Children's literature (with very rare exceptions). Current Theme Song (aka what's playing on my ipod right now): Undisclosed Desires by Muse.
